Just returned from dinner out at Two Amys in DC where I was pleasantly surprised to discover they had Green Flash Imperial IPA on tap. I'm a big fan of double IPAs and had recently heard about this one (perhaps on MGB).

Green Flash is a very good beer. I've been spoiled recently by Hopslam. Green Flash << Hopslam, but it is definitely worth trying if you have the chance.

Speaking of Hopslam, I still have a couple of six packs left, so I'm going to pack 2-3 bottles along with the last of my Founders Breakfast Stout as I head over to a fellow grad's house to watch the game against Ohio.

It's a 6.2% american pale ale made with Citra hops. 3 Floyds is brewed in Indiana and is pretty regional. This one is really rare and they only brew it when the hops become available. If you happen to be lucky enough to get your hands on it, cherish it. It wasn't even on shelves at my liquor store; you had to ask the manager to go in back and grab a 6 pack. 3 Floyds has a pretty strong presence in Chicago, but this beer was a bitch to find. Kind of along the line of Hopslam in terms of people seeking it out.

Haven't heard of someone sipping Hennessy and Alize outside of the projects. Labatt Blue for me... cheap and available. Gotta save for the more important part of the celebration... for that I need some white owls.

Just went to my local specs and I wanted to get something for the game. It couldn't be red and I really wanted a canadian beer. The canadian beer selection is texas is very slim but I found La Bach (spel?) because it's canadian and it says blue on.....I am satisfied.

I had a couple glasses of cabernet and a two hearted ale. I am trying to cut back on my drinking but days like this make it tough. If we beat Ohio I'm grabbing the whiskey and I will see you guys on Tuesday.
